My man Frank is still continuing to churn out Marvel variant covers.
Here's his Human Torch, and as far as I'm aware, the very first ever published rendition of a Frank Miller Deadpool.
In the meantime, Frank is slooooowly putting out the "sequel" to Ronin on his own publishing label.
A sequel nobody wanted, 4 decades later.
Frank is writing the dialogue and providing layouts and the finished art is provided by Philip Tan.
It's incredibly frustrating that they're essentially sitting on more or less "complete" Frank Miller interior artwork and instead of just printing it as is, they're going with the generic, cookie cutter, 1990s-era Image style "EXTREME!!" art instead. This crap is just so basic and boring. At least Frank's art has style, as crude as it is. It still looks like Miller. Philip Tan's pages just look like your typical over-cross-hatched crap that helped kill the industry.
Thankfully, they did just what I suggested with the fourth issue and just printed Frank's layouts with inks over them. It's not "great" but it's a lot better than the other issues. But now you've got a weird fourth chapter that sticks out like a sore thumb. I really hope they just go back and print the whole thing from Frank's layouts like they should have done in the first place. It's the only way I'm actually gonna buy the book in print. The story is complete and utter nonsense, as you'd imagine it would be.
